Keeping The Money Secure In The Laundromat.
If you are going to offer a Drop Off Service or have any products for your attendants to sell they will need a secure location to lock up their cash balance.
You may be considering a contracting out your Drop Off Service as I talked about in this post. Either way, if you are providing the secure storage or recommending something to your contractor.
In my store I use three different types of safes, a drop safe, small stackable attendant safe and a larger, floor mount safe.
The links for all three are available at the bottom.
The safes I use do not fire safes but simply a secure, steel storage box. As I know the balance of each safe I am not as concerned about fire damage. This reduces the size and allows more flexibility in mounting.
Each attendant has their own safety. You can send me an email and we can discuss the cash balance I use.
The safe can be opened by the attendant with a pushbutton code and a key. I have a master key that directly opens the safe to allow me to fill the safe and adjust the cash balance as needed.
I do not know the attendants’ codes for the safe nor do I need or want to. The code is reset with a button inside and if an attendant is no longer employed I immediately reset the code.
The drop safe is used for the envelopes containing the paperwork and excess cash from the shift. Although this safe is more expensive the anti-fishing feature is a key component. It prevents someone from hooking the contents with a coat hanger and pulling it out of the drop slot. It also has a larger capacity to make sure the envelopes drop flat on the bottom.
The last safe I use it for storing other items such as keys and excess quarters This one is larger to accommodate the pail used to collect the change. It is only accessed occasionally and is mainly used for times I am out of town and may need to provide access to someone else.
All of these safes have electronic locks that are easily changed.
